yes. you can try go to control panel, and click on security center, and choose the virus protection , and click on recommendations, and choose the botton "How?" next to get another antivirus program. there is a list of free virus protection, but they all have free periods, during these 3-12 month period, you get the benefit from these programs for free. I recommend F-Secure, it use only a little of system memory, so it puts little pressure on your computer, so your computer will run faster.

On the Windows platform, I've been using AVG Antivirus Free Edition, which works really well. The program seems much less intrusive than others, checks regularly for updated virus profiles and it's completely free (no nag screens).
You can find it here:

I highly recommend activive virus shield. It is by far the best free antivirus you can get.
